Anybody heard of this shop?

I might want to go there to drop my car soon.

If someone has been there b4, please let me know how it is.

Thanks.

 

If they charge over $100, go some other place, dropping the car should not cost that much.

 

Never been there before but driven by it a few times. I heard it's like a Japanese pepboys or more like Autozone considering all the ricer stuff available.

 

Mucho expensive... Everything is marked up 25% higher than norm.. Think of it more like Fry's for the Import car market. You go there and look around, test their goodies, then go home and buy it online.

For their service dept... it sure looks nice and clean, but they charge a hefty fee for any work they do.

 

yea these guys are dam pricey...the only thing they have cheap there are the carmate airfreshners...2-3 dollars cheaper than the local jap stores around my area....haha

 

sometimes I 'll buy there stuff
cuz its always in stock

I hate waiting

 

For instance, their Greddy SPII Exhaust for RX-8 is about 750 bucks. :P

Or their Volk Rims are about 650 each for a 18" one.. and 800 for 19".

No wonder they are going to lose more money this year!

 

I got my battery from there (yellowtop) for lower than anywhere else :P

 

Spot on. Not much rotary-specific hardware in stock, but tons of universal import stuff. The audio section demos are pretty cool.

 

autobacs is a huge import store in Japan just like an autobacs. They have a Rx8 that they all fixed up and yah. They have a nice bookstore and have some good DVDs. Ive been to it a couple of times just when im bored. I buy lights or dvds there

 

They are a little pricey, but they have agreat selection and everything is always in stock.

 

should say, they are always in stock because it's so pricey :P

I like browsing stuff there, then go home and ordering the stuff online. Just like Best Buy. Unless it's a dinky thing like an air freshner or something.

 

been there and i can say i'll probably never buy anything from there.

we call it the TOYS'R'US for car mods. its a nice place to look at rims and other cool things, but their prices are pretty high.

install prices would be cheaper at most local shops

 

I got my SP2 over their for 560. I must admit I made my girl call to see if they will give her a discount which they did. When I called it was 615 then I told her to call the next day and it worked haha.
